- Following troubling revelations at the deathbed of an old friend, Rupert Merriweather, our investigators scoured the Miskatonic University archives dabbling in forbidden knowledge in search of clues. Now they set off to the rural farming community of Ross's Corner to find that accursed place where Merriweather's horrors were conceived. This is Mystery Quest, a roleplaying podcast where we play a variety of one-shot roleplaying games with a rolling cast of special guests.

Mystery Quest remains the best content to come out of any Yog-related creator in a long long time.
The Apocalypse Players has entered the chat
Kebab chefs (hatfilms) and abiotic (hatfilms and duncan) are great aswell, long term series TTT is good aswell ^^
@@hccdgvvfccdgn993 Are there yogs in Apocalypse Players?
Games Night islreally good tho
@@Ali-ey9sz no but there’s some really good campaigns if you want lots more Cthulhu madness, I’d recommend highway of blood :)
It's good to see Lewis continuing the tradition of telling Tom he has a ridiculously powerful item without Tom's prior knowledge
Also the tradition of Yogscast Call of Cthulhu, where the old pompous guy has an elephant gun
And also, it making so much sense that Tom really can't say no.
@@Merzendi gm ''this is not just unbalanced as fk but also pulled right out the posterior with thin logic''
player counter ''i am your boss''
XD all the ''DnD played with workmates/boss'' horror stories one heard ^^
And also, knowing almost everyone in the city.
Like Lewis's character Ameebo in the Star Wars Yogsquest, who just happens to know almost everyone they meet. As much as an ass pull it was, Tom playing along with it cause Lewis succeeded his dice roll.
@@Merzendi he passed the roll ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is probably my current favorite show on UA-cam. Everyone is so charismatic and I love the character continuity.
I absolutely love that Tom B and Harry basically just created their own cursed object and proceeded to show it to a priest in a dilapidated church. Absolutley love the horror shenanigans
The showing of the cursed movie in the church, just Tom describing how there are pages and pages of _Des Vermis Mysteriis_ slowly turning while interspliced with... *_Something_* slowly turning it's head. No description, just... A creature. Just... _Chef's kiss._
53:24 Awww great memory Ravs. I almost wish Tom would'a GM'd a bonus there. Like giving him +3 luck or something for good karma. Not to abuse or whatev, but that moment was so pure lol
Sanity refill IMO. Not like MQ really goes hard into sanity (the only one where sanity was a real issue was Forget me not I think) but this feels like an action that would either increase or refill sanity. Just a show of basic human decency (also great roleplay should always be rewarded)
That intro was the most compelling one yet. I need to know what happened to Jimmy Morgans!
Jimmy Morgans more like Jimmy No-more-organs
Probably trapped on a derelict space station forever 😢
@@svenrio8521 Thank goodness for space uber
Tom is genuinely such a fun storyteller. Without him these series would be so much less enjoyable. I love how he takes the games so seriously and allows the guests to get weird with it. Leads to such fun moments
I love that they've created this nightmare cursed film?!?! That might have a demon in it?!?! Wooooboy and they show it to a priest?!?!? Incredible energy, incredible!
Oooh its really getting creepy. The evil film is so so good
The sound design really enhanced Barry's reading. I listen to these thru headphones and MAN shit like this hits juuust right. Great spooky Cthulu tingles.
Another great episode! I just ran this campaign for my family as an intro to Call of Cthulhu and it's really interesting to see which parts you interpret differently than I did, and which parts played out almost the same!
Did not expect to enjoy Lewis's Major character as much as I am, absolutely hilarious.
I am greatly enjoying this adventure, of three people advanced in age and one very ill advised film making young man! Looking forward to the elephant gun, it's ridiculous and yet perfectly fitting!
The cursed film is so good and fits so seamlessly you could think it was thought of ahead of time and not come up with organizing the spot. Great role playing from everyone!
I really want to see how the film ends, gave me super goosebumps and terrified as if something was standing right behind me. Amazingly described by Tom and I love the chaos of the gang trying to keep watching.
Absolutely loving this series! Call of Cthulhu scratches an itch and I genuinely felt scared when the group started watching the film back!
The Call was quiet at first, and now that it has dragged me to the end, I realize it's existence. I find myself on a Mystery Quest, and at the last episode released, having enjoyed all the others at leisure, slowly coming to look upon the horror of having to Wait. A few days, for now. Yet - after that...
I must have patience.
Loving this campaign. Great characters, really spooky and the cursed film bit is golden.
Mystery Quest is the best. I've loved all the series so far. All guests on the show have been amazing. Keep it up!
Correct me if im wrong, but there is an actual Call of Cthulhu adventure that is about a cursed vinyl record, where the curse was transferred to it when someone read an ancient book out loud.
I could be confusing it with a horror short story instead. I think there was also a bit where it took place in the 80's, and a cursed cassette tape was made from recording the vinyl record?
I liked the idea of curses being accidentally transfered across mediums/media.
Thank you Tom and all, going to listen to this on Monday while I work. You guys are a lifesaver 💗💕
The best intro yet! Gripping stuff.
Always makes my Friday knowing there’s a new role play session to watch! :)
Damn, was so engrossed in the story I was surprised it ended and had to check the video wasn't actually just 10 mins long. Absolutely flew past.
This is the first time you're running a Call of Cthulu adventure I've personally run. It's super interesting hearing all the different approaches you're taking, and I'm very excited for the post-game behind the scenes peek. Also, Harry and Tommy B accidentally creating their own "Cursed Movie" is so good and I hope "There's a lost Archie Van Der Holt movie that drives anyone who sees it insane" becomes Canon
That poor priest xD
I love them for just pouring their own sanity down the drain by insisting on rewatching the tape. They'll have barely any left once the real fun starts
Mystery Quest and Games night are some of the best stuff on youtube right now
Woo! this series is going great! I really can't get enough of this channel, I've been watching High Rollers for over a year now, and I'm glad this channel is also a thing. Keep it up!
Can I just say that the sound editing on these videos is on another level 👏
I'm loving this campaign so far! I always really appreciate call of Cthulhu as a system for it's unintentional story-telling, everyone failing the psychology roll on the priest really creates so much atmosphere, the unknown is so compelling! Was he possessed? Did he recognise the creature? Or was it just a check to tell us how damn scared he was? Amazing dm-ing as always Tom!
mmm, the blood that pours from my ears when ever Harry tries to speak in the stereotypical 1930's announcer voice
Loving this Mystery Quest! It's become a weekly treat to get cosy and listen to the latest episode. ☺
I'll be running this adventure on Sunday, my first time as a Keeper of Arcane Lore :)
I really hope we get another modern day Call of Cthulhu centered around that film.
I LOVE MYSTERY QUEST. ESPECIALLY CALL OF CTHULHU. THESE RETURNING CHARACTERS ARE AMAZING
A Mystery Quest? Always a wonderful addition to my day!
Would love to see animated best bits of Mystery Quest episodes
Mystery time babyyyyyyyy
Tom was having a moral breakdown once they tried to get the Priest to give them answers 😂
Love all of the Call of Cthulhu adventures, please Tom dont stop. Also spoopy film was terrifying, keep it up!
loving this!! very very cool. i cant believe they genuinely did that to that poor priest
the audio is very will done, props to the editor!
I love that cursed film, I hope it keeps coming up.
expected lewis to ask for a second elephant gun at the store
I love Mystery Quest! Arguably one of my favourite Yogscast channel!
Harry is always great in these, he's hilarious and knows how to drive the plot forward. Also I don't think they noticed but the previous owner was said to have moved to Boston, where Merryweather was warned to stay away from with no reason. The townsfolk are definitely involved!
Really been enjoying Mystery Quest, especially the Call of Cthulu runs! I recently joined a one shot of the game at a local board game cafe and had a blast! I played Viktor an artiste.. some say he is still painting those creatures eyes to this very day. Had a funny moment where my character and another looked at these horrifying paintings and I crit success and they crit failed so I gained sanity and inspiration and they lost sanity.
Lovely mystery quest.
I love that the party is made of 3 geriatrics and a strapping young lad XD
I AM enjoying it Tom, thanks for asking
That cliffhanger
Freaking hilarious. I'm thoroughly enjoying this series. More please. And if they can survive bring these characters along. 😂😂
Just made my dinner, and what a perfect video to watch!
I adore your videos and love call of cthulhu the most!
Harry and Ravs make such a wholesome old couple, I love them.
Quality work, Tom Bates is a great addition.
I like the small town chaplin i hope he gets his roof fixed.
I love Call of Cthulhu, and this crew is amazing! More!
Been looking forward to this all day!
I cant get enough of these
I'm loving this mate, also when is our next space setting? The Mothership storyline was amazing and some of the best content I've watched on UA-cam for was while.
The cursed film is soo good
Another great ep! Loving this one so far. I've been thinking of running this one and great to see how it's done!
Bam! Time to get mystory!
Mystery quest always makes my day
Ohhh baby this was a good one!!!!
Wow, the film part was pretty creepy. Good job!

Very Mysterious!
Spook! Us! Up!!!
The idea of these people just walking around and showing people this cursed film I find hilarious
Shhheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *cut to black - roll credits*
Call of Cthulu is always a winner
I love the cursed camera footage that is just going to be shown to anyone and everyone
great stuff, very enjoyable, more plz
gotta respect the Pepsi and Diet Coke product placement
Love to see more Major Lew Lew
Hope you played more Pulp Cthulhu, so they could punch evil in the face.
Hey Tom, if you could make a wacky RPG set in a completely untouched, weird setting, what would the setting be?
Exited to see where this story goes.
You guys should defo play mausritter on the channel!
I think Lewis character might be prof grizwalds long last brother
great video guys it was awesome and i love it when the intro is longer there always awesome who is the writer of them and it there a place i can listen to more of those kind of story's ?
I love this so much! please for the next series could we have the hat boyz??? ^^ pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Edge of darkness? more like edge of my seat
That is amazing content!!!
Fantastic work, and play.😅

I had no idea Harry Potter was in Call of Cthulhu!
Can’t believe I forgot yesterday was Friday
Idk if its possible or alot of work but as a tip maybe add the picture being shown (this case the house) on screen ^^ would love to see it ir any future pictures etc
It's been 37 days since the sun was last seen above the city of Roeveila. Passage out of the city has been blocked. Your friends and you have made theories about what's going on, but ultimately lack answers. Every so often, screams of terror reach over the walls. Something terrible lies beyond it. The few to have seen whatever creature it is, have not dared to speak a word of it. Rations have long since dwindled. You know that soon, you'll have to venture out into the vast darkness to scavenge whatever you can find. Will you fall victim to whatever lies within, or are you on A MYSTERY QUEST!
Poor Jimmy Morgans. But hey least we get a .....mystery quest ❤
Love Mystery Quest!
I know it was said that this would be short stories in the beginning, but is it possible to have a longer campaign going in whilst the short stories continues?
I cant tell if lewis is playing his character as senile or if he's just roleplaying normally
